Aston Villa fullback Luke Young says they can believe in the Premiership title this season.

"We haven't really spoken about [the title] but when you are three points off the top of the league you have put yourself in a great position," said Young, who returns to the Villa side after serving a one-match suspension.

"If we can get to March and still be in the same situation then we will be thinking 'Why not?' I don't think ­people are taking us very seriously for the title and, at the moment, we are just continuing to plug away."
